Phylogenetic tree of the GNAT superfamily and newly identified GNATs similar to the Hoplolaimina homologs. Phylogenetic groups containing each GNAT family are collapsed and color-coded with corresponding bootstrap support values indicated at each node. The number of sequences (n) that were used for each GNAT family is indicated within each collapsed phylogenetic group. Organisms that contain each GNAT family are provided in parentheses within each collapsed phylogenetic group. Note that the newly identified GNAT clade with similarity to the Hoplolaimina homologs forms a highly supported monophyletic group with no significant clustering to any other GNAT family, thus indicating a novel GNAT family, which we called Family 7 (FAM7). The raw phylogenetic tree is shown in Additional file 6: Figure S1, and contains all identifiers and species names for all of the sequences that were included in the analysis
